Mrs. Wang has been holding a grudge in her heart for a while. Su Tong thought that the other party would not take action, after all, she would be able to help Yuanchun after entering the palace, but she underestimated the other party's cruelty.

Not only did the clothes and jewelry sent there smell like musk, but even the food was a little weird, which really left no way for people to survive.

Su Tong originally thought that he could still endure it, until a poisonous snake appeared in his room. He could no longer bear it and directly told the old lady about his experiences of the past few days.

Seeing the old lady's inquiring eyes, Su Tong said frankly, "We are all family. If I have the ability, the whole Jia family will be in good shape. Why should I be so aggressive? Besides, I may not be chosen. I might just become a concubine of some defeated clan member."

Grandmother Jia did not expect that Mrs. Wang would be so narrow-minded. She was thinking of taking action before the matter had even started, and she was even going to take action against someone else's offspring.

Regardless of whether Yingchun can stop Yuanchun, children are the future of the Jia family. The old lady does not want the two sisters to kill each other, so she immediately warns Mrs. Wang and gives Su Tong a lot of things.

Su Tong naturally accepted all the things. These things were the capital for him to settle down and make a living. If the Jia family fell in the future, he would have to spend money on them.

Mrs. Wang never expected that her tricks would be seen through by a 13-year-old girl, and she was so embarrassed. She immediately reported illness and stayed in the house all this time.

Mrs. Xue heard the noise and went to visit Mrs. Wang. She thought that she was just simply ill, so she brought her a piece of top-quality ginseng.

But when she learned that the little maid Jia Yingchun was able to participate in the palace election, she felt a little jealous. Her own Baochai was so smart, but due to her status as a merchant family, she could only participate in the small election.

"It would be great if the two of them could exchange their identities." His daughter Baochai is considerate, smart, and beautiful. If she can participate in the election and be noticed by a noble person, she will have a glorious future.

But now his daughter can only participate in a small selection, and even in the future she can only be a maid to serve others. As for whether she can be favored by a nobleman, it all depends on luck.

Su Tong didn't know the twists and turns involved. After participating in the talent show, she was determined to give it a try. If she could stay, even if she couldn't become the old emperor's concubine, at least she would be given to two members of the royal family, and her life would be more hopeful in the future.

On the day of the audition, Su Tong first underwent a physical examination. These things had been arranged in advance. Su Tong handed a bag of silver to the nanny, and the other party just glanced at it once or twice. In this way, he passed the preliminary selection.

After the primary election, the next step is to go back and wait for news, and then participate in the general election. If you can perform extremely well, you will naturally be able to stay. After that, it will be a matter of each one's ability.

Yingchun is known as one of the Twelve Golden Hairpins, so she is naturally beautiful. However, she is still young and her face looks a little childish, but she is also a decent lady from a noble family.

After being taught by the nanny for a period of time, Su Tong's every move was no longer as timid as before. On the contrary, he was graceful and generous, with gentle eyes and eyebrows, which made people feel good about him.

The emperor has been busy with the selection of concubines recently. He is old and had suffered a stroke before, so he does not plan to select anyone for his harem this time. He is mainly looking for a few princes of appropriate age.

The selection of concubines was actually just a formality. If the ministers of both sides were interested in forming a marriage, they would usually ask the emperor for a favor, and the emperor would go along with it at this time.

However, when the emperor was flipping through the memorials and saw a familiar name, he nodded slightly.

"A girl from the Jia family? Which girl from the Jia family is this? If I remember correctly, there seems to be a female official from the Jia family in the harem."

The eunuch rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is still strong despite his age. His memory is much better than that of this old servant.

There is indeed a female official from the Jia family in the harem, but she is from the second house. This one is the daughter of the general of the Jia family, but unfortunately she is a concubine's daughter."

The emperor had grown old and was beginning to feel nostalgic. Thinking of the fact that General Jia had been the deposed crown prince's former companion, he was willing to give him some respect, not to mention that the former Duke Jia had accompanied him in his battles and had made great contributions.

"Well, since she's participating in the talent show, you should give her some respect. Although she's young, she looks almost there.

I remember that the Sixth Prince's family has few children, so let's give this Miss Jia to him as a concubine. For the rest, let Concubine De and the others select a few princesses who are easy to bear and send them over together."

The eunuch couldn't help but sigh that Jia She was really lucky. Thanks to the emperor's nostalgia, he was able to get a position of concubine for his daughter.

The Sixth Prince Zhao Yan is now a prince. According to the rules, he can have one principal wife, two concubines, and four concubines, as well as several aunts and concubines.

Although a concubine is also a concubine, she is the prince's concubine and has a jade butterfly.

After Su Tong learned that he had left a nameplate, the big stone in his heart finally fell. The emperor is getting older and older, and he should be nostalgic. However, as for which royal family member he will give it to, it depends on his luck in the future.

After Mrs. Wang learned about this, she lay on the bed and cried bitterly. If her daughter had participated in the election, a prince's consort would have done the same thing.

Unfortunately, the crown prince had just passed away at that time, and the emperor had no intention of selecting a concubine, so he cancelled the last general election and could only let his daughter participate in the minor election. Although she was nominally called a female official, in fact...

When the old lady learned about the nameplate, she knew that their family was going to have another noble person. She sent someone to inquire and learned that Yingchun was given to the sixth prince, but she didn't know whether it was a blessing or not.

"This can be considered a happy event. After all, the status of the prince's concubine is not low. Although the Sixth Prince is of humble origin, he is filial by nature. He has done a good job recently and is quite favored by the emperor. Maybe he will have a great fortune one day. If your granddaughter can give birth to a son and a daughter, it will be a great blessing."

Grandmother Jia nodded with a smile, but there was no smile in her heart. Everyone knew that although the Sixth Prince was highly valued by the Emperor, the most favored ones were the two princes born to Concubine Zhen. They were the future heirs to the throne. As a concubine, she... could only be a concubine at best.

Well, she was a royal concubine after all, so the old lady was willing to give her some respect. She had some dowries prepared and selected some people for Su Tong to accompany her as a dowry.

The old lady was not energetic enough, so she handed the matter over to Wang Xifeng. Now Wang Xifeng is in a dilemma. Her own sister-in-law is promising, but her cousin is still staying in the palace. Who should she help?

Su Tong went to see Wang Xifeng specifically about the dowry. First of all, she had to choose the people who would serve her, and she had to choose honest and loyal people. She didn't want anyone with a shady reputation, and most importantly, they had to keep their mouths shut.
